Sad but good





So last night was David's last night wearing my favourite of his sleepers. It just really doesn't fit anymore! Kris was putting it on him, and said "Hey buddy, it looks like this will be the last time you'll be able to wear this." So of course i burst into tears. i got it from the second baby shower i had, and it's white with a teddy bear on it, and the feet are made of light brown suede, and i actually cried when i received it, because it was that cute. The pics of him with Kris and him in his chair are from when he was itty, and the one of him on the blue is today. He used to just swim in it, and now he can't stretch out all the way in it:( Actually, i used to put it on him when he was first born, even though it's a size 3 months, just because i liked it so much. At least he got a lot of use out of it.

He's feeling better, now. The cold is gone, but he's been a very clingy boy lately. He just likes to be rocked and held, which is fine with me, but different for him. He's been kind of independent mostly. So now that he's Mr. Snuggly, it's been nice for me, but it's a bit harder to get things done. Oh well. Things will get done eventually.

He has his four-month checkup next Tuesday. i'm so excited to see how much he weighs and how long he is, compared to his 2-month checkup before we started him on acid reflux meds and formula. Ever since we've done that, he's like this whole other baby that doesn't seem to hate life the way he was before. It was really sad that breastfeeding didn't work out for him. However, it is so nice to have other people be able to feed him, and also that when he needs to eat in public, i don't have to cover up or anything. It's wonderful. After his checkup, we should be able to start him on rice cereal, and i can't wait to see his face with that first spoonful. Can you imagine what it's gotta be like, having a liquid-only diet your whole life, then all of a sudden having textures on your tongue? It'll probably blow his little mind! And it'll all go on tape:)

oooohhh.... I know that pain. I still get the sad face whenever we have to "retire" clothes. It's hard, but you just have to remember he is getting bigger and developing more into a little boy...there's better things to come!
